Binance May Soon Delist These 11 Altcoins
Binance, one of the leading crypto exchanges, has expanded its Monitoring Tag to cover 11 more altcoins, igniting discussions about potential future delistings.
The price of some of these 11 altcoins has suffered after the announcement. This is because, on previous occasions, Binance has delisted some altcoins after attaching a monitoring tag to them.
Why Binance Attaches Monitoring Tag to Certain Altcoins?
The newly tagged tokens include Balancer (BAL), Cortex (CTXC), PowerPool (CVP), Convex Finance (CVX), Dock (DOCK), Kava Lend (HARD), IRISnet (IRIS), MovieBloc (MBL), Polkastarter (POLS), Status (SNT), and Sun (SUN).
Following this announcement, notable market reactions were immediate. CTXC saw a sharp decline of 8.09%, CVP dropped by 12.66%, and DOCK also decreased by 11.71%. On the other hand, the other tagged altcoins experienced more modest drops.

Binance uses the Monitoring Tag for tokens that show significantly higher volatility and risks compared to others. This tag warns investors that these tokens could fail to meet Binance’s rigorous listing standards in the foreseeable future.
“Keep in mind that tokens with the Monitoring Tag are at risk of no longer meeting our listing criteria and being delisted from the platform,” Binance warned.
Furthermore, to trade these marked tokens, Binance mandates that users must periodically pass a quiz every 90 days, available on both Binance Spot and Binance Margin platforms. This ensures that traders are fully aware of the associated risks. The Monitoring Tags are displayed on the relevant trading pages, and a risk warning banner is also prominently shown.
The review criteria for these tokens include several important factors, such as the project team’s commitment, the quality and level of ongoing development, trading volume and liquidity, and network stability. The exchange also evaluates responsiveness to its due diligence requests and checks for any unethical or fraudulent activities.

On a positive note, Binance has announced that it will remove Enzyme (MLN) and Horizon (ZEN) from the monitoring list. This update implies a stable and secure status for these altcoins, removing the immediate threat of delisting.
